Ride straight and take the lane were tied at #5, thanks for noticing the omission

A really useful front and rear light kit is around $25-30. So much better than just a reflector and/or a “to be seen” light. Discounts at SB, Walts (and others?) are available.

If anyone is from another bike shop, please offer discounts to SJBP riders and announce it on this thread.

There are other cool lights like BikeGlow which help with side view visibility that is a big issue to reduce accidents. Look them up and say Bike Party for special pricing.

I’ve seen riders last month with Xmas lights on – battery powered. Where did you guys get those?

At least half of the riders have NO lights and about half that do only have the “to be seen” lights… many of us feel you need stronger “to see” lights instead.
